The family relationship between Gjest/Gjøa and Orm is unknown. But they
were clearly related. Vik and Marvik must have come from the Tjerand who "topped"
Steinnes' general family tree. Tjerand (Mjølhus) must have been born about
1440/1450. Arnbjørn av Heimnes, according to his testament, gave 6 1/2
mmb in Mjølhus to Svithuns Church in Stavanger.

In 1617 it was owned by the Bishop of Stavanger. The rest of the farm was allodial
property, which we must also believe came from Arnbjørn, and who could,
himself, have been an Arnbjørnsson. Mjølhus and the name Arnbjørn,
together with the farms Vik and Marvik, point to the Byre family.
930. Ibid. Gjest Erlendsson and Gjøa Arnbjørnsdatter
lived at Marvik in Jelsa in 1563. Gjøa was, without doubt, the daughter
of Arnbjørn Tjerandsson of Mjølhus. In 1563 Orm Ånonsson lived
at Byre, later at Stokka. He was the allodial owner of Marvik.
